This could actually be bad, and get worse. Apparently there is some kind of national occupy get-to-gether in Philadelphia next week.

Wtf....guys? guys? Where are ya guys? Oh....Officer...no, no, I was just having a look around...

I'll let you know how it goes.

Of course, this sort of thing thrives on news coverage, which may be limited because of the amount of coverage that's being given to the obamacare decision by the supremes.

Wolf, something is wrong with the link...
I didn't find the above portion of the quote in the article,
and the article "Comments" section appears, but then aborts.

In subsequent posts here you seem upset about the situation,
but I can't tell if it is the contract between ICE and the County for beds,
or the idea that a group of people might want to challenge the situation
(between a County and federal juridiction ?)

Or just the disruption of occupation?

The link is to an article about what they are pissed off about, the quote is from a facebook page announcing the event.

they have a live feed ... looks like about a dozen people at the bottom of the prison driveway. chanting and shouting through bullhorns.

Zero news coverage.

lulz... occupy isn't looking to good. Maybe the rest are working or something.

Jeeeze Classic,
Maybe they need to get a hair cut and take a bath too.
Or maybe they should Love it or Leave it.
I haven't heard such as that since the 60's !

When I read the quote, it sounded more to me like something
from a Hispanic civil rights group, or maybe from a Tea Party rally.

What is the issue here ?

Down boy ... I was going for a parody of an Archie Bunker type.
(note to self - leave the humor to Zen & foot3)

I thought your comment was funny. The live feed is pretty lame, as protests go.

However, they have now decided to "occupy" both traffic lanes of Eagleville Road.

This is a problem.

The live feed has gone down. I'm guessing that the po-po are putting their tactical alert plan into action.

Lamp, my reason for being upset is a little more personal than the issue the protestors are there for ...

OK Wolf, sorry if I overstepped...

A lot of sound and fury, signfying nothing, as the bard said.

Well, not a lot of sound and fury, actually.

I spent the morning watching two news stations and the live feed from the protestor's website. They had a grand total of 14 viewers. That includes me.

I'm assuming that at least a half-dozen or more of the others were local law enforcement.

Oh, and when I say local, I mean local.

The protest started with four people with a bullhorn, and a lot of ranting, some of it in Spanish and Spanglish. It is extraordinarily sad to watch one dude with a bullhorn try to lead the other three early arrivers in a rousing chant.

Didn't rouse much.

Eventually the bus from Philly arrived, and swelled their numbers alarmingly. I think they may have eventually had like ... two dozen or so?

They were on the lawn in front of the county hoosegow.

To start, anyway.

I began to worry when they began to block traffic on Eagleville Road. They marched in a really, really big circle, chanting, "undocumented, un" ... something.

Then, just in time for change of shift at the big house (I'm sure that played into the tactical planning), there was the sound of police sirens and the live webcast went off line.

I did get to see the line of police cars and paddywagons pulling out of the county slammer's driveway. I saw at least 15 different jurisdictions.

Hope the kids enjoy their courtesy body cavity searches.

I have every expectation that they will be back. The National Occupy Convention or convocation or gathering or happening or whatever they call it is in Philadelphia next week.
